Cultivation: Beginning with the Heart Reflecting Heaven and Earth
Chapter 74 Beauty is a Curse
Luo Wei's physical strength and the richness of her blood and qi far surpass those of a tiger; she is comparable to a deep-sea behemoth. Anyone who dares to approach her would be filled with trepidation.
Although this was not Luo Wei's intention, she could not control other people's instincts. Instincts would frantically warn people to stay away, and Lu Qian couldn't help but feel the same way at this moment.
However, Lu Qian knew what was going on. This matter was probably related to Tao Pili. When he was cultivating the Star Undying Body, he specifically mentioned to Tao Pili that he needed to replenish his qi and blood. Tao Pili, in turn, wanted to contact an acquaintance in the True Spirit Palace.
There was no feedback after that, and Lu Qian thought something unexpected had happened. Now, Luo Wei has finally arrived.
Seeing Lu Qian's expression, Luo Wei seemed to know what he was thinking. She glanced at him with her clear eyes and said calmly, "Your cultivation level was too low before, and you couldn't absorb the nourishment, so I didn't call you over. Now that you've reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining, you're barely suitable."
So that's the reason!
Lu Qian thought about it for a moment and felt that it seemed reasonable. Last time he ate the Xuan Whale Feast, it took him a long time to digest it. If he were to have a big meal like Luo Wei, he really wouldn't be able to handle it.
However, the others realized at this moment that Luo Wei had come to see Lu Qian.
Many people were confused because the two had no connection whatsoever. Moreover, Luo Wei was the number one among the Ten Talents of Canghai. Whether it was cultivation, combat power, or talent, she could be said to be unparalleled among her peers. How could such a person be related to Lu Qian?
"I thought they were here to see Lin Guihai, but they're here to see Luo Wei?"
"Look at Lin Guihai, so confident, only to be ignored. It's hilarious!"
"I've disliked him for a long time. Does he really think the Holy Land would care about someone with a Heavenly Spiritual Root?"
Whispers arose from the crowd, not directed at Lu Qian, but mostly mocking Lin Guihai.
Lu Qian was just a minor figure. Even though he had broken through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining, his cultivation level was still at the bottom. Moreover, he had entered through the back door, so no one had any expectations of him and probably wouldn't even give him a second glance.
Lin Guihai, however, was different. Relying on his Heavenly Spiritual Root and his ranking among the Ten Talents of the Canghai Sea, he always acted superior, which made many people resentful.
Seeing that Lin Guihai was being ignored when he spoke to Luo Wei, many people immediately began to laugh at him without any restraint.
Those people didn't deliberately lower their voices, their purpose being to make sure Lin Guihai could hear them. But no matter how talented Lin Guihai was, he was still just a teenager at this moment. His face flushed red, he snorted coldly, and walked away with a flick of his sleeve.
Lu Qian felt somewhat helpless because he noticed that Lin Guihai had given him a cold look as he left, clearly remembering him.
She really is a femme fatale!
The last incident served as a lesson for Lu Qian, but neither the last nor this incident can be blamed on him, because he did nothing wrong; he was simply caught in the crossfire and thus became the target of their anger.
If Lu Qian has any fault, it is probably that he is too weak. If he were as strong as Luo Wei, even Lin Guihai would only dare to be angry but not speak out, so how could he take his anger out on him?
Moreover, even if he was targeted by the enemy, Lu Qian had nothing to fear. Lin Guihai was just a Heavenly Spiritual Root, and apart from his talent, he didn't have any background. Lu Qian, on the other hand, had Tao Pili behind him.
A genius who doesn't grow up is just a genius; if there's any deterrent effect, it's only that the future is promising.
However, Lu Qian was determined to succeed. He didn't believe he was inferior to someone with a Heavenly Spiritual Root. By the time Lin Guihai grew up, he would have already grown up as well, so he wasn't afraid at all.
At most, Lin Guihai's cultivation level is higher than Lu Qian's, but there's nothing he can do. The Holy Land has its own order, and no one dares to use force casually.
Lu Qian might only need to worry a little after going out to carry out the training mission, but during the training mission, there will also be people from the Holy Land watching over him, and Lin Guihai is not unaware of this.
In a short time, Lu Qian went through these things in his mind and instantly felt relieved.
Everyone else watched from a distance as Luo Wei and Lu Qian spoke, but Mu Xue bravely approached them, her face tense, and asked with trepidation, "Sister Luo Wei, what do you need Brother Lu for?"
Luo Wei glanced at Mu Xue with some surprise. She recognized the girl, but usually, almost no one dared to approach her and strike up a conversation, hence her surprise. "I need to talk to him about something. If you have any questions, why don't you just ask him?"
Lu Qian also said, "That's right, this was arranged long ago!"
Seeing that Luo Wei had already walked ahead, Lu Qian didn't have time to talk to Mu Xue and hurriedly chased after her, leaving Mu Xue standing there watching with some resentment.
Mu Dong then came to Mu Xue's side and whispered, "It should be Elder Tao's arrangement. Everything will be fine."
Mu Xue just glared at him and didn't say anything more. That wasn't what she was worried about. But then she realized she was being a bit of a worrywart and relaxed.
Lu Qian followed Luo Wei and soon arrived at the Hall of Slaughter. Many people were watching them, making Lu Qian feel a little uncomfortable, but he still sat down with Luo Wei.
Seeing that Lu Qian seemed a little uncomfortable, Luo Wei propped her head up with her hand and said, "Don't worry about what others think. It's just a meal. It won't hurt you if others look at you a few more times."
"You can eat whatever I eat later. That should be enough to replenish your qi and blood. Your master has some things to do outside, so he can't come out to see you."
Lu Qian nodded quickly, "I understand."
It turned out that Master Duanhai was Luo Wei's master. Lu Qian wasn't too surprised; he had already guessed it when Luo Wei came to call him.
As for Luo Wei saying that Duan Hai Zhenren is not here, that is actually quite normal. The Holy Land and the Heart Demon Sect have been fighting fiercely recently, and many people have gone out to carry out the missions assigned by the Holy Land. Duan Hai Zhenren should be in the same situation.
Soon, the dishes began to be served. This must have been a menu that had been arranged in advance. After all, Luo Wei was a body-refining cultivator, and the Killing Hall was run by her master, True Person Duan Hai. Naturally, she often came here to eat in order to replenish her qi and blood.
In most cases, body-refining cultivators can also replenish their qi and blood by taking pills, but pills are poisonous and cannot be eaten as food. Therefore, spiritual food is better and can be consumed regularly. As long as resources are sufficient, body-refining cultivation will progress rapidly.
At this moment, Luo Wei had already picked up a large bone and handed it to Lu Qian. By the time Lu Qian subconsciously took it, Luo Wei had already picked up another bone as thick as a thigh and started eating it. She didn't care about her eating manners at all. She stuffed it into her mouth, and the bone and meat disappeared into her bottomless stomach.
When watching from afar, one could only feel awe. But now that Lu Qian was sitting in front of Luo Wei, he felt that she was not human, but more like a demon beast. No matter how big the bone was, she would crush it and swallow it whole in a few crunches.
Moreover, Luo Wei's eyes possessed a predatory quality, like a monstrous beast ready to devour any living creature at any moment. Her every glance seemed to betray a predatory intent. Only when her gaze fell upon Lu Qian did she glare at him with a hint of displeasure. "What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and eat!"
Lu Qian immediately picked up the bone in his hand and started gnawing on it. The meat was tender and melted in his mouth, but he couldn't quite chew the bone like Luo Wei did.
